AN INTERESTING EXHIBIT.
A Case Which Receives the Careful Atten

A Case Which Receives the Careful Atten-
ton of Visitors 30 the National Museum.
Special to the IndianaDolis journal.
WASHINGTON. July 30.-Amone the many at
tractive features of the National Museum there
is none which is more interesting to the hun
dreds Of visitors who enter the building daily
than the recently opened case Of component
parts of the human body" Not only the scien-
tfc visitors. but all who go there are at ono
taken up with this portion of the exhibit The
case stands in the west hall of the building and
Is about ten feet long by five feet high. In it
are several huge jars containing chemicals in the
proportion which they form of the human body.
No one unfamiliar with human chemistry and
an atomy would believe for a moment that all
those various substances are to be found in one
human being. But although the contents of the
Jars excite wonder, the immense carbon cube
which forms the center piece of the exhibit is
the thing which few people I'M
derstand. This cube is about fourteen
inches on each face, and it is
black any other piece of charcoal the
scientific on-looksr generally gives vent to the
opinion that it never came from the mortal re-
mains of any white man One of the jars re-
ferred to contains ga lion or more of chloric
gas. A short time ago, while a number of visi-
tors from the rural districts OF Maryland were
viewing the contents of the case, this gas
ploded with a loud noise and blew the stopper
out of the bottle. There were a number of sign
cards inside the glass walls which were attached
with small brass nails. These cards were origin
ally light buff color. Within a moment after
the escape of the gas they were bleached a per-
feet white. The brass nails were also affected,
and each of them now has head covered with
verdIgris. This incident has attracted the at
tention of the authorities of the museum to the
danger of allowing combustible chemicals to be
exhibited in room where there might be Sc
rious confiagation. 1t is probable that hereafter
danger of this kind will be avoided by the sub
sttution of models Of the solids and colored wa
ter or glass for the LIQUID and gaseous exhlbits.
